Time for a Feature...?

Okay, so I've been thinking lately that I need something else to put on the blog. I feel like, for me, I need more variety on here. I don't do anything but book reviews and memes and I know that's kind of the point of a book blog, but I really want to mix it up a tiny bit. So I thought, why don't I try and have like a feature or something! Thing is, I'm not a really inventive person, believe it or not, and I'm struggling to think of an idea... I thought about doing some discussion posts but I can't really think of anything too actually discuss, I thought about perhaps writing a few shorts stories, but that would suggest I could write interesting stories... I thought about doing something cover related but that's basically my Waiting on Wednesday posts... So I am asking you for help! Do you think it's a good idea? What would you like to see on here? Or should I just keep things the same... Maybe I should just, like, brainstorm or something... Or are then any really good memes going about that I should take part in? I dunno... I feel like I just need something more to do, like, I've been doing this for almost a year now and I need something to rekindle my real love for blogging. Not that I don't love it, I'm just not as enthusiastic about it as I used to be. So, any suggestions about anything would be useful :) Thanks for putting up with my ramby-ness! :D

I get like that sometimes, too! I don't want it to be just meme and book reviews, so every now and then I'll toss in a product review/giveaway. I even started my own meme that didn't work out, so I discontinued it. I DO have some semi-regular features that I do ... Poetry Corner, where I highlight a spoken word piece by a group of talented local young spoken word artists; This and That Thursday - just a bunch of little tidbits, either personal or bookish or simply interesting things I've found on the web; Giveaway Roundup - where I list giveaways I've found visiting other blogs. I think that if all I did were book reviews, I might quickly become burned out on it. I'm also thinking about a bi-weekly feature "what I'm making", where I showcase what project I'm in the middle of and give how-to links as well. I think if you just look around at the things that interest YOU, you can come up with a feature or two!

I try and do something on the Tuesday that I dont have a Dream Bookish Destination and sometimes I just cant think of anything (so I pick up random Q&A type things online ;) ) I hope you think of something cos I would like to see more of you random-ness ;)
